We’re expecting a girl in 4 weeks, but have hit a roadblock on names. Older brothers are [name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_u]August[/name_u].
[name_f]Geneva[/name_f] is a family name we’d like to incorporate and have considered using [name_f]Eva[/name_f] or [name_f]Via[/name_f] as a nickname for [name_f]Geneva[/name_f].
Other names we’ve been considering are [name_f]Iva[/name_f], [name_f]Ida[/name_f], [name_f]Effie[/name_f], or [name_f]Violet[/name_f].
Your thoughts on these names or any other suggestions would be great, thank you!
You can never go wrong with [name_f]Violet[/name_f]. It’s such a sweet classic name. I think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] would be the best suited name out of the options. [name_f]Ida[/name_f] also sounds nice.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] is lovely! [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] or [name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] could serve as alternatives to [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] if you don’t love [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] enough for a first?
I think [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] works well with [name_m]Silas[/name_m] & [name_u]August[/name_u] - this set has a nice zesty feel to it. I also think [name_f]Violet[/name_f] works well, giving the set a more classy, vintage feel.
[name_m]Silas[/name_m] & [name_u]August[/name_u] are so handsome! Here are my thoughts on the list for #3-
[name_f]Geneva[/name_f]-I love the fact that this is a family name. It’s very unique yet simple, & goes well w/your boys’ names. [name_f]Eva[/name_f] or [name_f]Via[/name_f] are cute. I also like [name_f]Ginny[/name_f], [name_f]Gigi[/name_f] or [name_f]Evie[/name_f].
[name_f]Iva[/name_f]-I don’t mind this. It’s not my personal favorite, but it’s different.
[name_f]Ida[/name_f]-I like this a little better than [name_f]Iva[/name_f]. It has a sweeter vintage feel.
[name_f]Effie[/name_f]-I’m not sure I love this. It’s okay. Maybe better as a nn, but I’m not sure what for.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]-Very pretty. It works w/your boys’ names. It’s getting sort of popular if that bothers you.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] and [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] [name_f]Violet[/name_f] are both great combinations that work well with the brother names. [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] is all kinds of awesome.
[name_f]Violet[/name_f] is so perfect with [name_m]Silas[/name_m] and [name_u]August[/name_u]! [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] or [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Eva[/name_f] are my picks. Congratulations!
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] is my favourite variation of this name. I love [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] [name_f]Ida[/name_f] ([name_f]Vivi[/name_f] or [name_f]Effie[/name_f] or [name_f]Evie[/name_f] as nn) or [name_f]Violet[/name_f] [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f]. From your list I do like [name_f]Violet[/name_f] and [name_f]Ida[/name_f] as first names.
I almost don’t want to make any more suggestions because [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] is absolutely gorgeous and one of my favorite names. That said, you do seem to favor names with song “v” sounds or at least strong consonants.
[name_f]Viveca[/name_f]
[name_f]Vienna[/name_f]
[name_u]Vida[/name_u]/[name_f]Vita[/name_f]
[name_f]Verona[/name_f]
[name_f]Leda[/name_f]
[name_u]Juniper[/name_u]: This seems to suit the style of [name_u]August[/name_u] and [name_m]Silas[/name_m], and the name [name_f]Geneva[/name_f] means juniper tree, so there’s a subtle tie-in.
